Elbow Room

Stopped in with some friends… I had the stuffed rigatoni which was ok, although I did get sick that night. My friends had a meatball sub and spaghetti/meatball…the meatballs were gross! They looked black and not even like meat… tasted really odd too. Probably won’t return.

Not impressed at all with the pizza… I had heard the pizza here was pretty good, so I decided to take the long way home from work and pick a couple of pizzas up for pizza night.
First, I paid almost thirty bucks for two twelve cut pizzas that were not very big at all –which isn’t a bad thing if the pizzas are great. These pizzas definitely aren’t great. I don’t mind paying for good pizza (Mineo’s, Fiori’s).
Second, man are they skimpy with the cheese. Hardly any cheese at all on the pies… made for a messy experience while eating. nothing but sauce.
Third, the crust was REALLY tough. I actually had to grab a hold of the pizza with my teeth and tear off my «bites». Frustrating way to eat pizza.
The pizza had decent flavor, but the above mentioned comments made for a negative experience. I don’t think I’ll be going back.

This is Pittsburgh local family dining at it’s finest! You’re not gotta get fine cuisine at this place but you can get just about anything else! Steaks, pizza, cheesesticks, pork chops, city-​chicken (pork on a stick). It is NOT FANCY (chicken parm here is 4 or 5 chicken strips covered in marinara and cheese) but decent & the prices are right. Full bar with cheap drinks. The atmoshere & my favorite waitress ever, Inez, really make this place for me. Beyond their usual pirate ship/​adventurer décor, they cheesily decorate for every season. God, I love this place!
